Published: Oct. 4, 2022, 12:02 a.m.

If you\u2019ve seen WAKE IN FRIGHT, you\u2019re probably wondering if we\u2019re going to talk about the kangaroo hunt sequence. Of course we are. Real Talk also prompts a discussion about \u201caggressive hospitality\u201d, a fascinating recount of the time this film was lost, and, of course, whether this Aussie classic hit the Contrarians\u2019 sweet spot! Has Chas Fisher scored a win for his country? Listen and find out!
